This looks like a Heliconia episcopalis. I am not sure which cultivar. However, I can't be sure with some photos of the leaves and leaf structure or description of the plant. Welcome to Project Noah! Thanks for following me!!!! Here is an excellent reference guide for the heliconia: http://www.heliconiasocietypr.org/index.html
